Ms Elaine Grehan:

May I come in on that? The EU has a huge project called SignON. It has involved five different countries, five different deaf organisations, and Ireland is one of them.

Everybody has come together to look at AI and not avoid it because we know it is an inevitable part of our future in terms of technology. We also have to realise that these other projects are not easy. Languages and sign languages are not easy to record and be input ready for an avatar to use because there is so much facial expression and body language involved. It is a huge project but we are not able to solve that issue just yet, and that is worth mentioning.
